As such, the organization equips its members and applicants with knowledge and skills in different fields which may not be taught by the academe. Held throughout the year, these series of lectures and workshops include basic training on event-planning and marketing, hands-on photoshop and video-editing tutorial, leadership seminar as well as a discussion group introducing the different towns of Eastern Visayas.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

As such, the organization equips its members and applicants with knowledge and skills in different fields which may not be taught by the academe. Held throughout the year, these series of lectures and workshops include basic training on event-planning and marketing, hands-on photoshop and video-editing tutorial, leadership seminar as well as a discussion group introducing the different towns of Eastern Visayas.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Held throughout the year, these series of lectures and workshops include basic training on event-planning and marketing, hands-on photoshop and video-editing tutorial, leadership seminar as well as a discussion group introducing the different towns of Eastern Visayas.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Filled with games and fun stuff, EV Week aims to foster camaraderie and to build ties among UP Diliman students from Eastern Visayas.

As such, the organization equips its members and applicants with knowledge and skills in different fields which may not be taught by the academe. Held throughout the year, these series of lectures and workshops include basic training on event-planning and marketing, hands-on photoshop and video-editing tutorial, leadership seminar as well as a discussion group introducing the different towns of Eastern Visayas.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Held throughout the year, these series of lectures and workshops include basic training on event-planning and marketing, hands-on photoshop and video-editing tutorial, leadership seminar as well as a discussion group introducing the different towns of Eastern Visayas.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

As such, the organization equips its members and applicants with knowledge and skills in different fields which may not be taught by the academe. Held throughout the year, these series of lectures and workshops include basic training on event-planning and marketing, hands-on photoshop and video-editing tutorial, leadership seminar as well as a discussion group introducing the different towns of Eastern Visayas.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Filled with games and fun stuff, EV Week aims to foster camaraderie and to build ties among UP Diliman students from Eastern Visayas. This three-day event, jointly headed by the Socio-Cultural Affairs and Internal Affairs Committee, is also held to introduce UP Sidlangan to EV students.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

As such, the organization equips its members and applicants with knowledge and skills in different fields which may not be taught by the academe. Held throughout the year, these series of lectures and workshops include basic training on event-planning and marketing, hands-on photoshop and video-editing tutorial, leadership seminar as well as a discussion group introducing the different towns of Eastern Visayas.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

As such, the organization equips its members and applicants with knowledge and skills in different fields which may not be taught by the academe. Held throughout the year, these series of lectures and workshops include basic training on event-planning and marketing, hands-on photoshop and video-editing tutorial, leadership seminar as well as a discussion group introducing the different towns of Eastern Visayas.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

=== Outreach Program ===&lt;br /&gt;
:An annual tradition of sharing to the less fortunate people is a little way of the organization to see smiles on their faces. It is UP Sidlangan’s turn to share what was received from people who supported.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Grade School and High School Quiz Show&#039;&#039;&#039;: The event opens with Pakaritay Elementary and High School Quiz Show, a showcase between competing minds of the region’s best students in elementary and high school as they hurdle through a series of questions in Math, General Science and in the Humanities. Basic knowledge, as well as current issues, will be tackled to increase the awareness of the young generation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Extemporaneous Speaking&#039;&#039;&#039;: On its 14th year, the Annual Pakaritay Extemporaneous Speaking Contest will once again set the standard for public speaking as we hear the young people speak out their views and opinions about significant issues concerning our generation. Through this, they will be able to relay insights to their fellow students and some respectable people from the academe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Essay Writing&#039;&#039;&#039;: Pakaritay Essay Writing Contest immortalizes creative ideas from fresh young minds as they express themselves through ink and pen.  We believe that written compositions can go beyond our voices’ reach and can even inspire more people.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Career Exhibit&#039;&#039;&#039;: Career exhibit inspires participants of the Pakaritay 2012 as they aspire for future courses in the premier university of the country, the University of the Philippines. An overview of courses offered in UP will be exhibited with a purpose of helping them choose which to take and gave them a preview about university life and what to expect as a UP student. Furthermore, it also aims to encourage high school students to dream big and take courses that are vital in enlightening and empowering our region’s development.&lt;br /&gt;

=== Outreach Program ===&lt;br /&gt;
:An annual tradition of sharing to the less fortunate people is a little way of the organization to see smiles on their faces. It is UP Sidlangan’s turn to share what was received from people who supported.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Grade School and High School Quiz Show&#039;&#039;&#039;: The event opens with Pakaritay Elementary and High School Quiz Show, a showcase between competing minds of the region’s best students in elementary and high school as they hurdle through a series of questions in Math, General Science and in the Humanities. Basic knowledge, as well as current issues, will be tackled to increase the awareness of the young generation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Extemporaneous Speaking&#039;&#039;&#039;: On its 14th year, the Annual Pakaritay Extemporaneous Speaking Contest will once again set the standard for public speaking as we hear the young people speak out their views and opinions about significant issues concerning our generation. Through this, they will be able to relay insights to their fellow students and some respectable people from the academe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Essay Writing&#039;&#039;&#039;: Pakaritay Essay Writing Contest immortalizes creative ideas from fresh young minds as they express themselves through ink and pen.  We believe that written compositions can go beyond our voices’ reach and can even inspire more people.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Career Exhibit&#039;&#039;&#039;: Career exhibit inspires participants of the Pakaritay 2012 as they aspire for future courses in the premier university of the country, the University of the Philippines. An overview of courses offered in UP will be exhibited with a purpose of helping them choose which to take and gave them a preview about university life and what to expect as a UP student. Furthermore, it also aims to encourage high school students to dream big and take courses that are vital in enlightening and empowering our region’s development.&lt;br /&gt;

=== Outreach Program ===&lt;br /&gt;
:An annual tradition of sharing to the less fortunate people is a little way of the organization to see smiles on their faces. It is UP Sidlangan’s turn to share what was received from people who supported.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Grade School and High School Quiz Show&#039;&#039;&#039;: The event opens with Pakaritay Elementary and High School Quiz Show, a showcase between competing minds of the region’s best students in elementary and high school as they hurdle through a series of questions in Math, General Science and in the Humanities. Basic knowledge, as well as current issues, will be tackled to increase the awareness of the young generation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Extemporaneous Speaking&#039;&#039;&#039;: On its 14th year, the Annual Pakaritay Extemporaneous Speaking Contest will once again set the standard for public speaking as we hear the young people speak out their views and opinions about significant issues concerning our generation. Through this, they will be able to relay insights to their fellow students and some respectable people from the academe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Essay Writing&#039;&#039;&#039;: Pakaritay Essay Writing Contest immortalizes creative ideas from fresh young minds as they express themselves through ink and pen.  We believe that written compositions can go beyond our voices’ reach and can even inspire more people.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Career Exhibit&#039;&#039;&#039;: Career exhibit inspires participants of the Pakaritay 2012 as they aspire for future courses in the premier university of the country, the University of the Philippines. An overview of courses offered in UP will be exhibited with a purpose of helping them choose which to take and gave them a preview about university life and what to expect as a UP student. Furthermore, it also aims to encourage high school students to dream big and take courses that are vital in enlightening and empowering our region’s development.&lt;br /&gt;

Held throughout the year, these series of lectures and workshops include basic training on event-planning and marketing, hands-on photoshop and video-editing tutorial, leadership seminar as well as a discussion group introducing the different towns of Eastern Visayas.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

=== Outreach Program ===&lt;br /&gt;
:An annual tradition of sharing to the less fortunate people is a little way of the organization to see smiles on their faces. It is UP Sidlangan’s turn to share what was received from people who supported.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Grade School and High School Quiz Show&#039;&#039;&#039;: The event opens with Pakaritay Elementary and High School Quiz Show, a showcase between competing minds of the region’s best students in elementary and high school as they hurdle through a series of questions in Math, General Science and in the Humanities. Basic knowledge, as well as current issues, will be tackled to increase the awareness of the young generation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Extemporaneous Speaking&#039;&#039;&#039;: On its 14th year, the Annual Pakaritay Extemporaneous Speaking Contest will once again set the standard for public speaking as we hear the young people speak out their views and opinions about significant issues concerning our generation. Through this, they will be able to relay insights to their fellow students and some respectable people from the academe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Essay Writing&#039;&#039;&#039;: Pakaritay Essay Writing Contest immortalizes creative ideas from fresh young minds as they express themselves through ink and pen.  We believe that written compositions can go beyond our voices’ reach and can even inspire more people.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Career Exhibit&#039;&#039;&#039;: Career exhibit inspires participants of the Pakaritay 2012 as they aspire for future courses in the premier university of the country, the University of the Philippines. An overview of courses offered in UP will be exhibited with a purpose of helping them choose which to take and gave them a preview about university life and what to expect as a UP student. Furthermore, it also aims to encourage high school students to dream big and take courses that are vital in enlightening and empowering our region’s development.&lt;br /&gt;

=== Outreach Program ===&lt;br /&gt;
:An annual tradition of sharing to the less fortunate people is a little way of the organization to see smiles on their faces. It is UP Sidlangan’s turn to share what was received from people who supported.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Grade School and High School Quiz Show&#039;&#039;&#039;: The event opens with Pakaritay Elementary and High School Quiz Show, a showcase between competing minds of the region’s best students in elementary and high school as they hurdle through a series of questions in Math, General Science and in the Humanities. Basic knowledge, as well as current issues, will be tackled to increase the awareness of the young generation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Extemporaneous Speaking&#039;&#039;&#039;: On its 14th year, the Annual Pakaritay Extemporaneous Speaking Contest will once again set the standard for public speaking as we hear the young people speak out their views and opinions about significant issues concerning our generation. Through this, they will be able to relay insights to their fellow students and some respectable people from the academe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Essay Writing&#039;&#039;&#039;: Pakaritay Essay Writing Contest immortalizes creative ideas from fresh young minds as they express themselves through ink and pen.  We believe that written compositions can go beyond our voices’ reach and can even inspire more people.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Career Exhibit&#039;&#039;&#039;: Career exhibit inspires participants of the Pakaritay 2012 as they aspire for future courses in the premier university of the country, the University of the Philippines.

::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Grade School and High School Quiz Show&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;The event opens with Pakaritay Elementary and High School Quiz Show, a showcase between competing minds of the region’s best students in elementary and high school as they hurdle through a series of questions in Math, General Science and in the Humanities. Basic knowledge, as well as current issues, will be tackled to increase the awareness of the young generation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Extemporaneous Speaking&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;On its 14th year, the Annual Pakaritay Extemporaneous Speaking Contest will once again set the standard for public speaking as we hear the young people speak out their views and opinions about significant issues concerning our generation. Through this, they will be able to relay insights to their fellow students and some respectable people from the academe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Essay Writing&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Pakaritay Essay Writing Contest immortalizes creative ideas from fresh young minds as they express themselves through ink and pen.

::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Poem Writing&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;This year, we will take a glimpse of the youth’s rhymes and lyrics as the Pakaritay holds its first poem writing contest.  Thoughts running through their ingenious minds will be scripted down in the most creative way they can through poetry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Feature Writing&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;UP Sidlangan will hold another first in its existence. Feature writing that focuses on the region will be held for the high school students to share anything under the sun regarding the given topic. Another battle of the pens will measure the awareness of the students about their region.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Career Exhibit&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Career exhibit inspires participants of the Pakaritay 2012 as they aspire for future courses in the premier university of the country, the University of the Philippines. An overview of courses offered in UP will be exhibited with a purpose of helping them choose which to take and gave them a preview about university life and what to expect as a UP student. Furthermore, it also aims to encourage high school students to dream big and take courses that are vital in enlightening and empowering our region’s development.&lt;br /&gt;

=== Outreach Program ===&lt;br /&gt;
:An annual tradition of sharing to the less fortunate people is a little way of the organization to see smiles on their faces. It is UP Sidlangan’s turn to share what was received from people who supported.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Pakaritay ===&lt;br /&gt;
:Pakaritay is an annual academic event designed to raise the academic performance and competence of the different elementary and high schools of the region.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Grade School and High School Quiz Show&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;The event opens with Pakaritay Elementary and High School Quiz Show, a showcase between competing minds of the region’s best students in elementary and high school as they hurdle through a series of questions in Math, General Science and in the Humanities. Basic knowledge, as well as current issues, will be tackled to increase the awareness of the young generation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Extemporaneous Speaking&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;On its 14th year, the Annual Pakaritay Extemporaneous Speaking Contest will once again set the standard for public speaking as we hear the young people speak out their views and opinions about significant issues concerning our generation. Through this, they will be able to relay insights to their fellow students and some respectable people from the academe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Essay Writing&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Pakaritay Essay Writing Contest immortalizes creative ideas from fresh young minds as they express themselves through ink and pen.

&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Poem Writing&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;This year, we will take a glimpse of the youth’s rhymes and lyrics as the Pakaritay holds its first poem writing contest.  Thoughts running through their ingenious minds will be scripted down in the most creative way they can through poetry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Feature Writing&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;UP Sidlangan will hold another first in its existence. Feature writing that focuses on the region will be held for the high school students to share anything under the sun regarding the given topic. Another battle of the pens will measure the awareness of the students about their region.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Career Exhibit&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Career exhibit inspires participants of the Pakaritay 2012 as they aspire for future courses in the premier university of the country, the University of the Philippines. An overview of courses offered in UP will be exhibited with a purpose of helping them choose which to take and gave them a preview about university life and what to expect as a UP student. Furthermore, it also aims to encourage high school students to dream big and take courses that are vital in enlightening and empowering our region’s development.&lt;br /&gt;

=== Outreach Program ===&lt;br /&gt;
:An annual tradition of sharing to the less fortunate people is a little way of the organization to see smiles on their faces. It is UP Sidlangan’s turn to share what was received from people who supported.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Pakaritay ===&lt;br /&gt;
:Pakaritay is an annual academic event designed to raise the academic performance and competence of the different elementary and high schools of the region.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Grade School and High School Quiz Show&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;The event opens with Pakaritay Elementary and High School Quiz Show, a showcase between competing minds of the region’s best students in elementary and high school as they hurdle through a series of questions in Math, General Science and in the Humanities. Basic knowledge, as well as current issues, will be tackled to increase the awareness of the young generation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Extemporaneous Speaking&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;On its 14th year, the Annual Pakaritay Extemporaneous Speaking Contest will once again set the standard for public speaking as we hear the young people speak out their views and opinions about significant issues concerning our generation. Through this, they will be able to relay insights to their fellow students and some respectable people from the academe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Essay Writing&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Pakaritay Essay Writing Contest immortalizes creative ideas from fresh young minds as they express themselves through ink and pen.

&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Poem Writing&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;This year, we will take a glimpse of the youth’s rhymes and lyrics as the Pakaritay holds its first poem writing contest.  Thoughts running through their ingenious minds will be scripted down in the most creative way they can through poetry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Feature Writing&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;UP Sidlangan will hold another first in its existence. Feature writing that focuses on the region will be held for the high school students to share anything under the sun regarding the given topic. Another battle of the pens will measure the awareness of the students about their region.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Career Exhibit&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Career exhibit inspires participants of the Pakaritay 2012 as they aspire for future courses in the premier university of the country, the University of the Philippines. An overview of courses offered in UP will be exhibited with a purpose of helping them choose which to take and gave them a preview about university life and what to expect as a UP student. Furthermore, it also aims to encourage high school students to dream big and take courses that are vital in enlightening and empowering our region’s development.&lt;br /&gt;

Held throughout the year, these series of lectures and workshops include basic training on event-planning and marketing, hands-on photoshop and video-editing tutorial, leadership seminar as well as a discussion group introducing the different towns of Eastern Visayas.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Outreach Program ===&lt;br /&gt;
:An annual tradition of sharing to the less fortunate people is a little way of the organization to see smiles on their faces. It is UP Sidlangan’s turn to share what was received from people who supported.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Pakaritay ===&lt;br /&gt;
:Pakaritay is an annual academic event designed to raise the academic performance and competence of the different elementary and high schools of the region.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Grade School and High School Quiz Show&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;The event opens with Pakaritay Elementary and High School Quiz Show, a showcase between competing minds of the region’s best students in elementary and high school as they hurdle through a series of questions in Math, General Science and in the Humanities. Basic knowledge, as well as current issues, will be tackled to increase the awareness of the young generation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Extemporaneous Speaking&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;On its 14th year, the Annual Pakaritay Extemporaneous Speaking Contest will once again set the standard for public speaking as we hear the young people speak out their views and opinions about significant issues concerning our generation. Through this, they will be able to relay insights to their fellow students and some respectable people from the academe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Essay Writing&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Pakaritay Essay Writing Contest immortalizes creative ideas from fresh young minds as they express themselves through ink and pen.  We believe that written compositions can go beyond our voices’ reach and can even inspire more people.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Poem Writing&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;This year, we will take a glimpse of the youth’s rhymes and lyrics as the Pakaritay holds its first poem writing contest.  Thoughts running through their ingenious minds will be scripted down in the most creative way they can through poetry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Feature Writing&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;UP Sidlangan will hold another first in its existence. Feature writing that focuses on the region will be held for the high school students to share anything under the sun regarding the given topic. Another battle of the pens will measure the awareness of the students about their region.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Career Exhibit&#039;&#039;:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Career exhibit inspires participants of the Pakaritay 2012 as they aspire for future courses in the premier university of the country, the University of the Philippines. An overview of courses offered in UP will be exhibited with a purpose of helping them choose which to take and gave them a preview about university life and what to expect as a UP student. Furthermore, it also aims to encourage high school students to dream big and take courses that are vital in enlightening and empowering our region’s development.&lt;br /&gt;
